Greg Monroe came off the Raptors' bench for 11 points and a season-high-tying nine rebounds in just 15 minutes on Wednesday.

You can't really call this a 'revenge game' since Monroe played a mere 26 games for the Celtics in 2017-18 -- one of three teams he suited up for last season. Toronto has used 14 different starting combinations this season, compared to 12 lineups all of last season, but Monroe has only been a starter twice despite the absence of Jonas Valanciunas (thumb). He's not worth owning in standard leagues. Jan 16 - 10:54 PM

Greg Monroe was scoreless for the second straight game on Sunday, going 0-of-3 from the field with seven rebounds and two blocks in 18 minutes.

Monroe is now 0-of-7 in the past two games and this is the exact opposite of what fantasy owners expected in Jonas Valanciunas' absence. The swats tonight were nice, but incredibly it's the first time all season he's blocked shots -- that's two blocks in 217 minutes. Leave him on the wire. Sun, Dec 30, 2018 09:53:00 PM

Greg Monroe scored nine points with three rebounds in 11 minutes against the Heat on Wednesday.

While Pascal Siakam didn't exactly play well today, the fact that he's continuing to see minutes at center spells trouble for Monroe. With Serge Ibaka back, the Moose is a drop in most leagues. Wed, Dec 26, 2018 11:22:00 PM

Greg Monroe went for six points and eight rebounds in 22 minutes against the 76ers on Saturday.

Monroe got the start with Pascal Siakam shifting back to his usual power forward role. Predictably, Monroe got into early foul trouble against the behemoth that is Joel Embiid, which limited his availability. As long as Serge Ibaka (knee) and Jonas Valanciunas (finger) are out, Monroe will see playing time, but still isn't worth owning in most leagues. Sat, Dec 22, 2018 11:07:00 PM

He had a "scheduled maintenance checkup," but coach Nick Nurse said he expects him back with the team on Tuesday. We'll assume he's ready to roll for the game against the Kings after two straight games resting, but you can never be too sure when you're talking about Kawhi.

He's been out for three straight games, but he will not play against the Kings on Tuesday. Instead, look for Anunoby to re-join the rotation on Wednesday. Assuming Kawhi Leonard (rest) plays, there's not much fantasy appeal here. Norman Powell and C.J. Miles have picked up the slack in Anunoby's absence.

Nick Nurse is hopeful that Jonas Valanciunas (thumb) will be able to beat his four-week timetable.

Valanciunas has remained engaged at recent practices and was able to go through about 60-70 percent of Thursday's practice, although he wasn't able to go through any contact work. Because this is just a thumb issue, Valanciunas has been able to keep up his conditioning, so he should be ready to hit the ground running once he is cleared. JV will be regularly evaluated over the next few weeks, but with him still not taking contact, we can assume he's not close.
